[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading that Vanderbilt (kid's ED school) has optional 90 second Glimpse video (https://initialview.com/glimpse/).

Where can we get help editing something like this? Not overly produced, but what to say that's not covered in the application etc? A script? What to wear, how to film it etc. Should there be editing?  What if kid has some online material to show? Should it be edited in with kid's voice?

I guess this is what a private counselor is for?[/quote]

No help is needed. Good grief. My kid did glimpse and other similar "optional" videos for at least 3 schools. They made each up themselves! They got into multiple top 10 schools, including the ones with videos.  Come on this is not hard. If a kid needs a private counselor for any of this application stuff they should not be applying to elites. They will not do well at ivy/elite: they are filled with intelligent, creative go-getters who do not need mommy to seek help on this or anything else. [/quote]

Agreed. These schools know those kids who deserve to be there and will do well. My kid has asked for and needed no adult assistance in this process. This is who these schools are looking for, and not kids whose parents need to hire an "essay coach" or video producer. Get a grip, parents![/quote]

Know your own kid. Parent your own kid.[/quote]
